You don’t need injections to get fuller lips. Indeed, you can make a mark with a clear or white pencil in the centre of your lips, contour your lips with a pencil of the same colour as your lips then apply some gloss on top.

9. Here’s how to get a more intense and deep look

It is possible to make your eyes deeper and more intense with your beauty products. To do this, take light shades (for example white or cream and pearl colours) and apply them in the inside corners of your eyes. You can also apply a little of these eyeshadows to the centre of your eyelids and under the bone at the tip of the outer lid. Then apply your darker eyeshadows.
